Particle.publish and JSON escaped data

[mhdevx]

@frlobo how do you retrieve the data object? My events have the \ in there as well:

and reading them in the browser similar to the approach described here:

Using Spark.publish() with Simple JSON Data

Let’s say you have looked at the Getting Started with Spark.publish() tutorial, but you need to send data that needs more processing once it gets to its destination on the web. You have a lot of choices for the data format, but one simple choice is to use JSON, the JavaScript Object Notation which let you send property names and values in an easy to read and easy parse to format. You may have noticed in fact that the data returned by listening to the event stream from a published event is alr…
